I love your metas! When the ep first started, for some reason Buck appeared younger to me. He just looked younger for some reason. Anyway, once the episode ended I realized that I’m prepared for Eddie’s breakdown but I wasn’t prepared for Buck jumping further down the rabbit hole.

I got so uncomfortable watching it and I truly believe that was the intent. His face just looks so empty of any feeling to me. He is missing his anchors again and diving more into self destructive behavior. I have no crystal ball, but I truly believe Bobby will regret pairing them up. He hand pick Eddie for a reason and I keep feeling we will see why Eddie is the right partner. Love the montage we got of Eddie. I can’t wait until he gets back on the team, but I do love his interaction so far at dispatch.

Also loved the dinner scene. I’m buckling up for 5B for sure. 5x11 pressed the gas from the beginning. It will be interesting to see what and how so many things will be addressed in 7 eps.

Hi lovely! Awwwww, I'm so glad that you do, thank you so much! :D *hugs you real big*

I know what you mean, there was something so fresh-faced about him, as well as moments with his eyes going all big, that it made Buck look younger, I think. Which only serves to pull at our heartstrings even more when we see him hurting over Eddie not coming back to the 118, or feeling so awkward in his own r/s and his home, and of course, the whole consent issue (he looked so young during s1 too, when that whole theme started).

And I'm with you on so many of the points you made! I have to admit that ever since we started getting spoilers for 5b, I started asking myself how will they fit in so much into just 8 eps. Well, I think 511 def was a rollercoaster that showed just how much 911 can do with one ep. But I also suspect that quite a few things will spill over into s6.

Since you referred to Bobby regretting his choice, may I add in this ask:

do u think bobby will regret picking lucy in the end because he made that comment how picking the wrong person would destroy the 118 and people think that's foreshadowing what are your thoughts?

As always, I’d rather not speculate, but since this is a recurring subject... I think Bobby didn’t want to choose new members for the team, he had to. In so much as he’s keeping the 118 afloat, I don’t think he’ll regret choosing someone. Will he regret Lucy specifically? I think that will depend on how things unfold. Currently, the kiss is understood by Hen and Buck as being Buck’s responsibility. Assuming that’s how the show continues to portray things (and the interviews lead me to believe so), I think Bobby will mainly think that whatever friction on the team Lucy brings with her, it’s for Buck to man up and deal with the reasons behind it, rather than regret bringing her in. However, if she turns out to be reckless to the point of actually endangering the lives of others on call, then I think Bobby may come to regret it, yes. And I did have that thought about that line possibly foreshadowing that.

Thank you again for the kindness and I hope you like this reply! Have a great day, hon! xoxox
